The FAN7317 is a LCD backlight inverter drive IC that controls P-N full-bridge topology by using the new proprietary phase-shift method.
The FAN7317 provides a low-cost solution and reduces external components by integrating full wave rectifiers for open-lamp protection and regulation. The operating voltage range of the FAN7317 is wide, so an external regulator isn’t necessary to supply the voltage to the IC.
The FAN7317 provides various protections, such as open-lamp regulation, open-lamp protection, arc protection, short-lamp protection, CMP-high protection, and FB-high protection, to increase the system reliability. The FAN7317 provides burst dimming function and analog dimming is possible, in a narrow range, by adding some external components.
The FAN7317 is available in a 20-SOIC package.

1 REF This pin is 5V reference output. Typically, resistors are connected to this pin from CT pin and BCT pin.
2 BDIM This pin is the input for burst dimming. The voltage range of 0.5 to 2V at this pin controls burst mode duty cycle from 0% to 100%.
3 BCT This pin is for programming the frequency of the burst dimming. Typically, a capacitor is connected to this pin from ground and a resistor is connected to this pin from the REF pin.
4 OLP1
This pin is for open-lamp protection and feedback control of lamp currents. It has the same functions as other OLP pins and is connected to the full-wave rectifier internally. In striking mode, if the minimum of rectified OLP inputs is less than 1V for 1.6s; or in normal mode, if the minimum of rectified OLP inputs is less than 0.5V for 10ms; the IC shuts down to protect the system in open lamp condition. The maximum of rectified OLP inputs is inputted to the negative of the error amplifier for feedback control of lamp current.
5 OLR1
This pin is for open-lamp regulation. It has the same functions as other OLR pins and is connected to the full-wave rectifier internally. When the maximum of rectified OLR inputs is between 1.8V and 2V, the error amplifier output current is limited to 1µA; and when the maximum of rectified OLR inputs reaches 2V, the error amplifier output current is 0A and its output voltage maintains constant. The maximum of rectified OLR inputs is inputted to the negative of another error amplifier for feedback control of lamp voltage. When the maximum of rectified OLR inputs is more than 2.2V, another error amplifier for OLR is operating and lamp voltage is regulated.

Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device.

In addition, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability. The absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only.

UVLO: The under-voltage lockout (UVLO) circuit guarantees the stable operation of the IC’s control circuit by stopping and starting it as a function of the VIN value. The UVLO circuit turns on the control circuit when VIN exceeds 5.2V. When VIN is lower than 4.75V, the IC start-up current is less than 100µA.
ENA: Applying voltage higher than 2V to the ENA pin enables the IC. Applying voltage lower than 0.7V to the ENA pin disables the IC.
Main Oscillator: In normal mode, the external timing capacitor (CT) is charged by the current flowing from the reference voltage source, which is formed by the timing resistor (RT) and the timing capacitor (CT). The sawtooth waveform charges up to 2V. Once CT voltage reaches 2V, the CT begins discharging down to 0.4V. Next, the CT starts charging again and a new switching cycle begins, as shown in Figure 39. The main frequency is programmed by adjusting the RT and CT value. The main frequency is calculated as:

In striking mode, the external timing capacitor (CT) is charged by the current flowing from the reference voltage source and 12µA current source, which increases the frequency. If the product of RT and CT value is constant, the striking frequency is depending on CT and is calculated as:

Burst Dimming Oscillator: The burst dimming timing capacitor (BCT) is charged by the current flowing from the reference voltage source, which is formed by the burst dimming timing resistor (BRT) and the burst dimming timing capacitor (BCT). The sawtooth waveform charges up to 2V. Once the BCT voltage reaches 2V, the capacitor begins discharging down to 0.5V. Next, the BCT starts charging again and a new burst dimming cycle begins, as shown in Figure 40. The burst dimming frequency is programmed by adjusting the BCT and BRT values.

Analog Dimming: For analog dimming, the lamp intensity is controlled with the external dimming signal (VADIM) and resistors. Figure 41 shows how to implement an analog dimming circuit. The polarity of OLP1 should be reversed with respect to OLP2.

Burst Dimming: Lamp intensity is controlled with the BDIM signal over a wide range. When BDIM voltage is lower than BCT voltage, the lamp current is turned on; so, 0V on BDIM commands full brightness. The duty cycle of the PWM pulse determines the lamp brightness. The lamp intensity is inversely proportional to BDIM voltage. As BDIM voltage increases, the lamp intensity decreases. Figure 43 shows the lamp current waveform vs. DIM in negative analog dimming mode.
Figure 43. Burst Dimming Waveforms
Burst dimming can be implemented not only DC voltage, but also using PWM pulse as the BDIM signal. Figure 44 shows how to implement burst dimming using PWM pulse as BDIM signal.
Figure 44. Burst Dimming Using an External Pulse
During striking mode, burst dimming operation is disabled to guarantee continuous striking time. Figure 45 shows burst dimming is disabled during striking mode.
Output Drives: FAN7317 uses the new phase-shift method for full-bridge Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lighting (CCFL) drive. As a result, the temperature difference between the left and the right leg is almost zero, because ZVS occurs in both of the legs by turns. The detail timing is shown in Figure 46.
Figure 46. MOSFETs Gate Drive Signal
Protections: The FAN7317 provides the following latch-mode protections: Open-Lamp Regulation (OLR), Arc Protection, Open-Lamp Protection (OLP), Short-Lamp Protection (SLP), CMP-High Protection, and Thermal Shutdown (TSD). The latch is reset when VIN falls to the UVLO voltage or ENA is pulled down to GND.
Open-Lamp Regulation: When the maximum of the
rectified OLR input voltages ( max
OLRV ) is more than 2V, the
IC enters regulation mode and controls CMP voltage. The IC limits the lamp voltage by decreasing CMP
source current. If max
OLRV is between 1.8V and 2V, CMP
source current decreases from 22µA to 1µA. Then, if max
OLRV reaches 2V, CMP source current decreases to
0µA, so CMP voltage remains constant and the lamp voltage also remains constant, as shown in Figure 47.
Finally, if max
OLRV is more than 2.2V, the error amplifier for
OLR is operating and CMP sink current increases, so CMP voltage decreases and the lamp voltage maintains the determined value.
At the same time, while max
OLRV is more than 2V, the
counter starts counting 32 rectified OLR pulses in normal mode, then the IC enters shutdown, as shown in Figure 49. This counter is reset by detecting the positive edge of BCT. This protection is disabled in striking mode to ignite lamps reliably.
CMP-High Protection: If CMP is more than 3V in normal mode, the IC is shut down after a delay of 10ms, as shown in Figure 54. This protection is disabled in striking mode to ignite lamps reliably.
Figure 54. CMP-High Protection
High-FB Protection: If the minimum of the rectified OLP
voltages( max
OLPV ) is more than 3.5V, the counter starts
counting eight rectified OLP pulses in normal mode, then the IC enters shutdown, as shown in Figure 55. This counter is reset by detecting the positive edge of BCT. This protection is disabled in striking mode to ignite lamps reliably.
